I have attached a picture of the car I am
looking for. It was built in 1963 for Tom Ivo and has two 454 cubic inch
Buicks in line. Vertex magnetos and Hilborn injectors. I ran the car in 1963
and sold it. Last know owners were the McCaig brothers of Berwyn, Illinois.
The sold it in around 1970 to someone on the south side of Chicago. The
surviving brother does not remember the name of the buyer.

Jack Ditmars would like to locate his
"Der Mini Brute" The chassis was built by R & B automotive of
Kenosha, Wisconsin. Body by Fiber Glass Ltd. It was powered by an injected
Chevrolet. Contact Jack Ditmars at 708 614 9000

Dear Bill, I would like to submit the Orange metal flake, Rod
Peppmuller built, 1964 WRFH Frantic 4 car for the "Ten most
wanted" list....or whatever it may be called. The trail has gone cold
as I am now in Hawaii where it is supposed to be and no luck. The people who
told Peppmuller at CHRR in '98 that they had the car are unidentified. My attempts
to reach Norm Weekly have been futile. Sob, sob! Please help us get reunited
after 35 years. Signed, Desperate in Dallas Dennis648@aol.com

Owned by Euell Barnes, and the late Jim Simpson. Jim lost a
leg in a prior race accident, this car had a hand operated clutch pedal, a
simple cable set up. Jim toured the east with the small block Chevy
powered dragster. Sold it before he returned to Phoenix. Euell would sure
like to find and restore this piece of Arizona drag race history. This is
a run against Speed Sports Stuckey car.
